Journalists at Nine Entertainment newspapers go on a five-day strike over pay negotiations, seeking better pay, AI protections, improved freelancer conditions, and diverse newsrooms.

Journalists at Nine Entertainment newspapers, including The Age, The Sydney Morning Herald, and The Australian Financial Review, are on a five-day strike over pay negotiations. High-profile figures, like Paul Kelly and Thomas Keneally, have supported the striking journalists, urging Nine not to "torch journalism." During the strike, journalists are asking readers not to click on articles or buy hard copies of the newspapers, and to sign a petition in support of their demands for better pay, protections against AI, improved conditions for freelancers, and more diverse newsrooms.
